Still no Laura, Synch and Darwin
While I don't hate the design I hope it's not permanent mainly for that reason.
Also I personally prefer Xavier in a wheelchair visually but I know that doesn't make sense in context since he was disabled because he was injured, not born with it.
TO KNOW HER IS TO FEAR HER: JESSICA DREW THE SPIDER-WOMAN

MISSING:
Synch's Aura
Northstar and Aurora's shiny hair
Spider-Woman’s cowl costume
I got the impression the similarity was created to give the hint that Xavier might be on a narrow path from which he could slip into The Maker territory. Especialy since we don't know his plans for mutantkinds future.
He could very well be on the path to turn mutants into something akin to the people from The City, where everyone is born artifical and made for a purpose. After all the greatest weakness of mutants in the face of the homo novissima was that mutants are born with random powers, rather than the "desired" powers.
So his grand strategy for their survival and victory might be to remove that from them and instead shape them into something more "efficient". Who knows how much Moira's little show of (unconfirmable) memories has broken him, to the point of a more subtile madness?
Only while Ultimate Reed Richards created such a society to spite his wive and former friends, Xavier intends it out of a form of love for humanity and a desire to see them survive. Not realising what he is luring them into might rob them of what makes them human (turning them into a humanoid ant swarm).

White sword had a healing factor better then logans and there is a 10th xmen to hold a sword
However, I am concerned about how he might be written outside of the X-books (especially in King in Black, based on the previews)
The helmet has a deliberate effect of making him look creepy, just like whenever you hide the eyes of a character, it is the first thing that people look for in other people to empathize with them. Just like Alien.
Whenever he takes it off it is for his most human moments in which he shows weakness, as in Davos or X of Swords (in which he has maintained a moral stance)
It's the same thing as when Magneto's helmet completely shades his face, except for the eyes sometimes, even if the lighting of the scene doesn't go with that. It's just an aesthetic choice to give an unsettling vibe. Xavier has been most benevolent, if a tad shady (the exception being his dealing with Mystique, a sociopath that should never be trusted), since House of X #1 and it's the kind of thing that throws the reader off. Because you feel like his appearance doesn't mix with most of his words. So you wonder if he's putting up a facade of being a good person, or if you're being tricked due to comic book cliches.
Of course, that's all my scorching hot take and I might be full of ****. But it makes sense for me.

Days of the Future Past prelude that Claremont did with Larroca for the Claremont collection book
I thought Kurt was killed early in that timeline with Amanda walking with Illyana to school when government agents attacked the mansion
More X-Treme X-Men? I hope others enjoy it but nah, thanks. I'm good. And Iron Man? Ugh.
